Kaufman Mercantile Foldable Japanese Rubber Boots are lightweight, waterproof, and roll up for easy storage when you're done with them.

Navigating rain puddles in a good pair of rain boots can actually be fun. But finding a place for those boots once you've reached home or the office? Less so. Kaufman Mercantile offers a solution with its unique Foldable Japanese Rubber Boots, which were originally designed for use in paddy farming. Manufactured in a small factory on the island of Hokkaido, the lightweight boots feature an expandable vent at the back of each leg to help with sliding them on and off. Once rolled up for storage, the boots can be secured with an included heavyweight rubber band. A rugged outsole helps discourage tumbles, and the design is classic enough, though we wish the boot was available in colors. Just be sure to rinse your willies before stashing them: The only thing worse than caked-on mud is caked-on, rolled up mud.
